March recruiting thread 2

[Zarathustra]

just a reminder why she's a UConn target...............a 6'3'+ forward with a bag full of offensive moves and a great shooting touch

As the commentor stated : "SOMFAI on FIRE!"

 

[cohenzone]

Not her coach, so likely her dad.

She resembles the guy. Must be her dad. And she seems like a happy kid like Ashlynn.

Gandy seems to have benefited from her first year in the USA.
She is a 2025 student so my bet is she will keep developing her game next year and have a realistic chance to be in the regular
rotation come November 2025 here at UConn. Hope we get some Horde members and/or Boneyarders to watch her in person. Just LOVE those raves from Ireland about her work ethic and potential!

BTW: Is Lara a 2025 student? Am I correct that she is attending the same school in Florida as UConn verbal Kelis Fisher?

Think I read somewhere that Gandy is working with Bob Hurly Sr, so that's a plus.

Yes.

 

[donalddoowop]

Thank you. I was going to ask if anyone had any information on how her season went.

 

[UcMiami]

Just checked and the IMG roster lists Somfai as a guard at 6'4" (according to MaxPreps.) Same class as Kelis Fisher.

Nice stats, seems to run the court pretty well for a post.

UConn needs the "Bean"!! She's going to be a big time post player......has the athleticism to be totally dominant........

 

[RoadMaster]

A lot of nice players here in Leah's post..
Wonder if we can get the one shooting in the last picture?

Bean is a mega recruit. She’s very tall and very, very good, especially for her age.

 

[oldhusky]

Believe it is just an oversight, or more is coming, but I didn't see the big O on the latest target list.

Seems so? Looks like the alphabetical list for 2026 stops at the B's...

Are we involved with Emilee Skinner at all? Just curious.

 

[BobbyJ]

I don’t see Somfai ranked on any sites. I’m assuming it’s because she’s considered international? If so, does anyone have any idea where she’d be ranked if she was? Also, does anyone have an idea who is the betting favorite out of her Top 5? Coming to Storrs from Florida has to be a good sign.

Obviously I don't know what the gurus would say but on my list she'd be in the top 5 forwards in the 2025 class.

She's top-20 with All Star Girls Report.

I just took a look at ASGR. Some notables:

1. Chavez
2. Davidson
3. Somfai--wow!
7. McGaughey
8. Betts
13. Fisher--nice
26. Malou-Mamel--wow!
28. Macy

 

[donalddoowop]

The last mix tape I saw of Mamel showed her looking so much better than she looked at the beginning of the season. She looked like a project earlier. Not now. If she continues to improve as much as she has, she will be a big addition to UConn's future.
